Flight Attendants

A federal jury found Tiron Alexander, 35, guilty of wire fraud and entering into a secure area of an airport under false pretenses.

The Association of Flight Attendants-CWA (AFA-CWA) has announced details on its new tentative agreement with United flight attendants.

Both the union and United called the contract “industry-leading.” The two have been negotiating a new contract for around four years. 

The Association of Flight Attendants-CWA (AFA) has stated that United is “demanding concessions from flight attendants” while announcing its new interiors.

Flight attendants serve in roles far beyond the familiar scene of a smiling crew member performing the safety demonstration.

A federal judge has dismissed a class action lawsuit against American and manufacturer Twin Hill over claims that uniforms caused health issues.

The tentative deal includes several improvements for the carrier’s around 2,200 flight attendants, and is set to be voted on later this month.

Citing rising airport cost pressures, ultra-low-cost carrier Allegiant says it will end base operations at this airport, which began in 2009.

This move, Southwest said, is part of the carrier’s ongoing efforts to “further maximize our operational efficiency and reliability.”

After over two years of negotiations, flight attendants at Alaska Airlines have overwhelmingly voted to ratify a new three-year contract.
